ESPN draft analyst Mel Kiper Jr. said on a conference call Wednesday that both wide receiver Dez Bryant and nose tackle Dan Williams stand a good chance of being off the board by the time the Dolphins make their No. 12 selection in the NFL Draft April 22.

While Kiper said it would be a “great pick” if Miami could land Williams, he said sidekick Todd McShay has Williams going seventh to Cleveland.

“Dan is gonna go very high,” he said.

As for Bryant, he said he has the Oklahoma State wideout going to the same Browns at No. 7. He also said he expected neither player to get past Miami if either is still there.
